The Well - The Gamits

I have walked and I have wandered

I have tripped and I have fell

In the ditches and the gutters

I have drowned inside the well

I should take what you have given

Lock it up and keep it safe

Never waste another moment

Never throw your words away

I’m not waiting any longer

For the meaning or the moment

To reveal what is perfect

I will find my way out of the well

I am lost, I am defeated

I am everything I hate

Buried deep under the ground now

My words echo in the cave

Open up and let the doubt in

Hold my breath and suffocate

There is no one who can touch me

I am lord of this domain

They say that drowning is slow

And peaceful when you finally go

You live your whole life in that moment

Then you’re gone

I won’t hesitate to wonder

What will happen if I fail

I can promise me a beating

I will beat myself into the ground
